There are, literally, loads of films filmed in Mexico City, where I was born and still live in. Of the better known ones, I would add Buñuel’s El Ángel Exterminador and Cuarón’s first feature film: Solo con tu Pareja, The editing was GREAT. And I appreciate your effort going to the locations, who are actually quite far away from each other. From Chabacano Metro Station (Total Recall), to Romita (Los Olvidados), to “Our Lady of Holy Traffic” church (Romeo + Juliet), to the Satélite Towers (The Holy Mountain), and back to Cuarón’s house. I also appreciate your mentioning of Los Caifanes, an iconic film (though I would’ve love to see the scene where they dress up the Diana Cazadora fountain. Then the video would have been perfect).
Great video. The house used in Santa Sangre and Frida belonged to actor Emilio Fernandez. I skipped La Casa Azul and went there instead. Highly recommended.
Great video from our favourite globe-trotting content creator. I don't think you've missed anything of note out except maybe Che depicting Guevara's meeting Castro but that was only a moment in the movie. Thanks for mentioning the Frida documentary. I'll check it out.
Wow! What a treat. A great ideas for a video. Again, you've introduced me to films i haven't seen and some history i didn't know. Thank you. I would enjoy seeing you do more of these. Enjoy your day!
Another great Mexican Film you forgot to Add is my favourite of the 1960s Luis Buñuel’s Masterpiece The Exterminating Angel from 1962 another film that criticises the High Class .
great idea for a video! looking forward to the series, very informative!! what did you think of jim jarmusch’s ghost dog: way of the samurai? you never included it in your best films of 1999 (not even honourable mentions!)
I liked Ghost Dog. I love that Jarmusch is out there making his unique movies but I think he's just one of those directors that doesn't reach me as much as he reaches others. I still enjoy watching his films though.

It was a pleasure spending time in your great city. I will definitely check out Solo con tu Pareja!
Great video.

Wonderful video!
Cheers!
Great to see Güeros get a nod--Ruizpalacios's more recent Cop Movie is for my money even better. Cheers!

8:17 Little do people know that the Romans regularly drank Gatorade during their crucifixions. It's tiring work, after all.
